Sewing supplies, services and school Rutland Sewing approached me to develop an identity for their new store in Oakham, Rutland.

Devised as a venue for all things sew, Lynne and the team were looking for a something a little crafty, a little feminine and a touch ‘Rutland’.

The solution was to create a roundel style logo, delivered in a variety of contemporary colours.

Central to the marque was a monograhic R that’s supported by the stores name and an acorn, one of the symbols of the county of Rutland. A needle and pair of scissors complete the logo and give it that crafty touch.

The logo is perfect for turning into a rubber stamp, allowing Lyne to quickly and affordably create other marketing artefacts from stamping store bags to creating business cards.

As the full logo is a little fussy, I developed a set of smaller logos which gradually simplify allowing the brand to remain strong even when the logo is used at very small sizes.

GENEROUS WORDS

Kieran did a terrific job with the Henmore Health branding and the solution expertly met the brief we provided. It was great to work with a professional brand designer who offered significant value for money and someone we would be happy to recommend.

Kieran understood the importance of embedding local culture in a brand that enjoys its heritage but is strong enough to venture anywhere. We are proud of Henmore Health, proud of the brand and proud to serve the people of Ashbourne where it was born. Few I think can capture this in graphic design the way Kieran has. Thank you.

A logo could cost anywhere from nothing to a six-figure sum and over!

You’re not here to be given a huge ballpark figure, so, along with an idea to be more succinct and direct, logo design starts from £500.
